Amy L. Brown
Jan. 31, 1970 – Sept. 24, 2019
Amy Lee Brown, 49, Harrisonville, died Sept. 24 at ABC Health Care, Harrisonville.
Funeral services were Sept. 27 at the Atkinson Funeral Home, Harrisonville, with burial in Orient Cemetery, Harrisonville.
Amy was born Jan. 31, 1970, in Fargo, North Dakota, the daughter of Basil and Geraldine (Janow) Brown.
Amy was preceded in death by both her mother in 1980 and her father in 2017. She also had a brother, Paul Brown, of unknown status.
She had lived in Kansas City before moving to Harrisonville in April 2003. She worked for the Casco Area Workshop for some time in those early years.
Amy’s parents had not been in Amy’s life for years and with Amy’s effervescent personality, her family became all those who cared for her at ABC Health Care and those who met her through doctor visits, from Harrisonville to Kansas City to Overland Park, Kansas.
Amy entertained in many a waiting room over the past several years. Amy also knew what she liked in men and would let you and the gentleman know in several not-so-subtle ways.
If you met Amy, you had a story to share about her. She was larger than life in so many ways. There was a lot of personality packed into that young lady. We all loved Amy without question. She had a way of getting to you right in that spot in your heart with a depth that not many people reach.
Amy also had many friends among the residents of ABC Health Care. Her roommate, Laura, was her most dear and inseparable friend. We will all miss Amy’s loud shrieks and announcements of our presence – no, we will miss nearly everything about Amy. Thank you, Amy, for gracing our lives with your presence.
Arrangements were under the direction of the Atkinson Funeral Home, Harrisonville.
